|
make your own streamers from old plastic bags!
| |
|
Every year, an estimated 17 billion plastic bags are given away by supermarkets - equivalent to over 290 bags for every person in UK. . |
| |
bags and other plastic packaging create the majority of the 3 million tonnes of plastic waste a year in the UK, and landfill remainsthe main form of waste management in this country
|
This destroys countryside and, as it rots, produces the greenhouse gas methane. The simple solution? Reduce consumption, Reuse and Repair or Recycle.
|
|
| |
| 1. Flatten an old bag and cut it into strips using scissaors. |
|
|
|
|
| 2. Arrange the strips into a pile, one on top of another, and then sew them together at one end. For funky streamers combine strips from different coloured bags. |
|
|
|
| 3. Secure them to the end of your handlebars using string. |
Enjoy! |
